About: Iâve been caring for dogs for the past 5 years, including boarding family and friendsâ dogs for stays of up to a week. For the past 3 years, Iâve also regularly walked dogs for family and friends, so Iâm comfortable handling different breeds, sizes, and energy levels. I grew up with a Golden Retriever and a Golden Retriever/Newfoundland mix, which gave me experience caring for large dogs from a young age. Iâm reliable, active, and attentive to routines, whether that means regular walks, feeding schedules, or making sure dogs are comfortable while their owners are away. Iâve always genuinely loved being around dogs and enjoy getting to spend time with them. Iâm currently home for the summer from college, so I have a flexible schedule and plenty of time to dedicate to pet care throughout the week. Iâm available for walks, drop-ins, boarding, and overnight stays, and I can easily work around petsâ usual routines and needs. Since Iâm active and enjoy being outside, dog walks and spending time with pets fit naturally into my daily routine. I always try to keep pets comfortable by following their normal routine as closely as possible, including feeding schedules, walks, playtime, and any specific instructions from the owner. I make sure pets get plenty of attention, exercise, and supervision throughout the day. In my home, pets would have a safe, clean environment with lots of space. I have a large backyard for outdoor time and exercise, and I also have a very friendly Golden Retriever/Newfoundland mix who is well socialized with other dogs. Since the yard is not fenced, I would always supervise outdoor time and keep dogs safely on a leash when needed. In a clientâs home, Iâm respectful of their space and work to keep pets comfortable in their usual environment and routine.

About: Iâve owned both dogs and cats. Experience with both. We lost our dog in March so our house is feeling empty right now and would love to have your fur baby over to keep us company. I am also available for walks or drop ins in the evenings and weekends. I currently work full time, usually 8-4. I can come home on my lunch break for potty breaks. I only work 7 mins from home. I do have a 7 year old daughter that is in the home as well. We have a fenced in yard that is great for dogs to run. We also have a lot of windows and bird feeders for cats to sit and watch the birdies.
About: I love dogs and have a fenced in yard for them to play. đž I am knowledgeable about dog behavior and recognize signs of illness or distress. I have experience with potty training, medication administration, and reinforcing basic training commands. I currently work three days per week and have plenty of time to spend with your pups. My spouse, Chad, is usually home when Iâm not available - together we can be flexible with pickup & drop off times. I have a fenced in yard and lots of space inside my home for pups to make themselves comfortable. In my home, pups are welcome on furniture and will receive lots of pets and playtime. I will maintain a safe, clean, and loving environment environment for you pups. âĄ
âKathleen did a wonderful job caring for my two dogs. She gave them plenty of love and attention, followed all instructions carefully, arrived on time, and spent the appropriate amount of time with them. I felt confident they were in great hands and would happily recommend her.â

About: We are a pet friendly home excited to enjoy your pet. We have owned animals ranging from dogs, cats and chinchillas to birds, rabbits and mice. I have attended multiple dog obedience training classes and have dog sit for many friends and family's pets. We have two pet friendly dogs in the home named Wellington and Willy who are both pugs. We love to go on walks and play as much as possible while still teaching obedience. Willing to adjust to each animals home training to avoid being homesick and/or start any bad habits. I have a separate area with large cage if owner prefers for sleeping and/or other times of day. All animal will be welcomed into our home with lots of hugs, smiles and belly rubs.
âMelissa was a great sitter for our cat. She communicated promptly, asked appropriate questions, and sent photos on each day of our cat's care. Sidney was well taken care of while we were gone. Thanks Melissa!â


About: I have always had dogs and am experienced in caring for dogs of all ages and size. I can give your dogs medications and help with training basic commands. I work full time 6am-2:30pm Monday-Friday then one weekend a month. I typically go to the gym most days for about an hour otherwise am home outside of work hours. I will work with your established routine and care for your pets. I think itâs important to maintain their normal as much as possible.

âI was very pleased with Stephanie's care of Jazzy. I appreciated the photos and notes she sent me. She also respected and took care of my home. I will call upon her again in the future and highly recommend her to anyone wanting care for their pet.â


About: I have a very flexible schedule and I'm happy to be there for walks and potty breaks or house and pet sitting as-needed. Minnesota native. I look forward to hearing from you. I have a small dog of my own and I take her for walks as needed, although she has severe arthritis and needs daily medication and monitoring. I am accustomed to letting her out to go to the bathroom at least every 4-5 hours. She is my pride and joy, and I'll ensure your canine family member is treated with equal care. I also care for my mother's large dogs often and grew up with larger breeds. There are 3 dogs in my household already, so boarding your dog at my residence may be a challenge, but I have done it before with enough time for a couple meet and greets beforehand. I am more than willing to come to you for your overnight needs or for daily walks and playdates.
âBryn did a wonderful job taking care of our pets! She paid lots of attention to our elderly cat and sent plenty of pictures and thorough updates. We came back to a happy and healthy boy. Can't recommend enough!â


About: I grew up having all kinds of pets, from small rodents, birds, cats, dogs, geckos, and fish. My love for animals has continued throughout my adult life and my comfortability around all kinds of animals is second to none. I work in private childcare, and am used to both entering into others homes and being respectful and trustworthy, and also provide loving and attentive care in my own home as well. Whether it's walks, cuddles, or reassurance that their parent will be back, your furry, cold-blooded, or feathered baby will be in good hands with me. Strong communication skills as well and as many photo updates as the pet parent would like! Monday through Thursday I leave around 7:45am for work and am back by 11:45 and home the remainder of the day! My 10 year old pup enjoys this schedule đ Friday through Sunday Iâm home full-time. Lots of time spent playing, cuddling, and spending time relaxing together. I have a 10 year old female (fixed) 40 pound dog that is as sweet as can be and gets along with all animals! No prey drive whatsoever. We love walks, being outside, and cuddling on the couch at the end of the day.
âFirst time Rover user and Jessica was absolutely fantastic with my two girls. I appreciate how accommodating and understanding she was. I hope to use her again!!â


About: Iâve grown up with pets so I know how important their care is and how unique every animals needs are. I have experience with many different types of dogs (Saint Bernard, Great Dane, German Shepard, corgi, collie, pit bull, bulldog, etc). Iâve had cats all my life of different temperaments so I know how to respect their boundaries and keep them happy. My familyâs had rabbits, fish, chinchillas, lizards. I just moved up to white bear lake and donât have main job yet so my schedule is free. I can show up whenever Iâm needed. I treat every animal uniquely because I know not all of them are the same. I respect their boundaries and will personalize my care to them. If an animal is shy I will not try to force them to interact with me. If an animal has a lot of energy I like to play with them to give them stimulus and tire them out.
âBethany did amazing with my two cats & was super flexible on dates/times when I had some last-minute changes! Loved the photos and will definitely have her on the list as a repeat sitter!â
About: Iâve cared for dogs and cats my entire life and regularly help neighbors, friends, and family with pet sitting and drop-in visits. Iâm comfortable with feeding routines, walks, playtime, administering basic medications, and caring for both energetic puppies and senior pets. I treat every animal like my own and prioritize safety, consistency, and clear communication with owners. I work full-time but maintain a flexible schedule that allows me to accommodate daily drop-ins, walks, and overnight care when needed. Pet care is built into my routine â caring for my own animals is the first and last part of every day. I prioritize reliability and consistency, and I communicate clearly about availability. My home has a fully fenced yard with plenty of secure space for supervised outdoor play. Inside, I have hardwood floors and an open layout with room for pets to relax comfortably. I have two crates available if needed and maintain structured areas for feeding, water, rest, and play. Safety, supervision, and routine are my top priorities, and I ensure pets are monitored and comfortable at all times.

Gavin took great care of our dog, Luna, and my brotherâs dog, Ike, over the holiday weekend. He was reliable, communicative, and kept us updated with photos, which gave us peace of mind while we were away. We came home to two happy, well-cared-for pups and would gladly book with Gavin again. Highly recommend! đž

Tip: You can discuss your specific arrangements with a pet sitter on Rover to what fits you, your pet, and your sitterâs needs. To find what their special skills are, look at the "Skills" and "Pet care experience" sections on their profile.
Key handling is entirely up to you and your sitter to agree on during the Meet & Greet or in the Rover app. Most pet parents in Mahtomedi choose to hand over a spare key or digital fob in person, while others arrange a lockbox or unique access code. Don't forget to discuss key returns as well!
Every sitter on Rover is required to pass a background check before listing their services. This process confirms their identity and indicates they are not on the Department of Justiceâs National Sex Offender Public Website or have any disqualifying offenses.

A Meet & Greet is a short introductory meeting between you, your dog, and a sitter. It can take place in person or virtually, although we recommend in-person so that your pet can get to know your sitter or the new environment. During the Meet & Greet, you will have a chance to walk through your pet's routine, medical needs, and unique quirks. Take the time to ask your sitter questions about their skills and expertise, and make sure the fit feels right for everyone. Most pet parents and sitters on Rover welcome Meet & Greets because the process can give confidence and peace of mind for service experiences, especially for longer stays or first-time bookings.
While Rover doesnât offer traditional subscription services, some sitters offer recurring bookings for services like home visits and dog walking. Recurring services come with their own perks, such as flexibility to modify services (up to five weeks in advance), automatic billing, Rover Card updates, and same-day cancellations.
